Unexpected album track splits are nearly always caused by errors in the
ALBUM tag. They can also be caused by spurious DISCNUMBER tags.

It just reduces the level by adjusting the 24-bit word value internally
- exactly as the digital volume control does. There is NO compression or
limiting.
--
I should have said was, when using
RG you shouldn't also have lots of digital level reduction. Otherwise
you may be straying into the low-SNR realm. I reckon that RG of -10dB
(which is pretty much the max for very "loud" albums) + -10dB of level
reduction is probably the safe limit. Ev
having its inputs summed to mono by a direct l/r connection
(which is exactly what the y-connector does).

'C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\Cache\MySQL\#sql_af0_0. MYI'
what's with the ". MYI" - surely that should be ".MYI" - no preceding
